Whispering Reeds

In emerald realms where shadows play,
Beneath the moon's soft, silvery sway,
A frog resides in stillness deep,
Where whispering reeds their secrets keep.

Amid the marsh, a symphony,
Of croaks and chirps in harmony,
The frog, a prince in humble guise,
Sees worlds unfold in dragonflies.

With eyes like orbs of jade so clear,
Reflecting stars, he holds them dear,
Each night he sings a lullaby,
To stars that twinkle in the sky.

In ripples' dance, he finds his art,
Each leap and splash, a master's part,
The reeds, they bend, they sway, they hear,
His dreams within each droplet clear.

So listen close to nature's song,
Where tiny hearts beat strong and long,
In whispering reeds, the secrets lie,
Of life and love beneath the sky.
